Pretty

Jennifer by Jennifer Aniston

Review by  that  Heartless ManTrapTom

Celebrity scents are for the most part, not to put too fine a point on it, crap.  Oh, there are ones that are wonderful: Miller Harris l’Air de Rien and Etat Libre Like This are exceptions but for every one of those there’s 10 Britnay Kardoostian’s Phrooty Phantasy or 12 Incontinence by Paducah Budgetel.  Ones that are perhaps too literal looks into the naming person, in that the scents are cheap, strident and ultimately insufferable.

Jennifer by Jennifer Aniston is not that.

It is perhaps exactly the way that Jennifer Aniston seems: pretty in a very non-threatening manner, kind of sporty, with no rough edges and with a very girly-girly sensuality.

Jennifer starts off with a bright citrus burst and some cabbage rose, adds in a very clean jasmine and finishes with a hint of warm woods and a slightly salty skin scent.  It’s lovely really: completely wearable and balances the floral, citrus and beachy skin aspect in a way that’s well, pretty is the word I keep coming back to.  No bad thing at all.

Actually, it’s so sweetly pretty in a non-threatening, “take her home to meet Mom” kind of way that the woman who should be wearing it isn’t a Jennifer Aniston at all.  It should be worn by a really heartless man-trap as camouflage.

Angelina?
